Try some seared scallops with a sage butter sauce!. To sear the scallops, make sure that they are very dry!. Pat them with a few paper towels and let them drain on a towel while your skillet is heating up!. In a heavy bottom skillet, melt about 2 tablespoons of butter!. Season the up side of your scallops with salt and pepper!. When the pan is hot, place the scallops seared side down in the pan!. Season the up facing side with salt and pepper!. Cook them for about 2 minutes, you will know when they are ready to flip, because they will release easily from the pan!. Turn the scallops and sear!. When the scallops are done, remove from the pan and reduce the heat to medium!. Add 1/4 cup of butter and 1/4 cup of chopped sage leaves to the pan!. Stir and cook until sage is crispy, but not browned!. Add salt and pepper to taste and drizzle over scallops!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
